Welcome to AK Counseling!
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Certified School Counselor with six years of experience supporting children, adolescents, and their caregivers.
Certified in play therapy, I use developmentally appropriate, creative, and client-centered approaches to help kids and teens feel accepted, known, and connected. My work is grounded in the belief that all children thrive when they have a safe, supportive space to express themselves and make sense of what they’re experiencing.
In therapy, I strive to create a space where young people can explore big emotions, build confidence, strengthen communication skills, and grow in ways that feel meaningful to them. I also collaborate closely with caregivers, offering guidance and practical tools to support progress at home.
I am committed to meeting each child and family where they are, honoring their strengths, and working together toward lasting positive change.
